-2 games less than the Ravens. -Most of it with under center handoffs (I think), no Lamar Jackson taking off on passing plays (Albert pitched in with 350, solid, but not amazing at 5.1 ypg) -A leading rusher I wasn't able to name. Can anyone guess without looking? Can't recall the exact spelling, b...

The only thing this probably changes is that Spec Sanders passes Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts for season rushing yards and TDs by a QB? Can't think of any other records still standing from the AAFC. I believe the Yankees were still using the single wing in 1947 and Sanders was a halfback, not a qu...

John Riggins held out for the whole 1980 season but returned in 1981 saying, "I'm bored, I'm broke, I'm back." I don't know if the layoff helped him, but I think it's fair to say it was the years after his sabbatical that put him in the Hall of Fame.

but as far as CFL, etc ... By-Laws are specific to pro football as “played in the United States of America.”

OK, then that excludes Canadian players . . . for now.

Facts remain: He never won a damn thing without you know who True. And Paul Brown never won anything without Otto Graham. Tom Landry never won anything without Roger Staubach. Bill Belichick never won anything without Tom Brady. That doesn't mean any of them were "chokers," let alone &quo...

And the juvenile insults continue.

Dude was a generational choke artist pre-Mahomes and now suddenly he can do no wrong

This continued "choke artist" stuff is ridiculous. It's the kind of thing 12-year-olds say to sound cool.

I think the answer to No. 1 is Marv Fleming, and No. 4 is Staubach.

Ooh, that reminds me: In 1943, Sammy Baugh led the NFL in passing, punting and interceptions but was not named MVP.

What are the most unbreakable records still on the books? Two that come to my mind involve interceptions. Tommy Morrow intercepting a pass in 8 straight games is pretty unlikely in today's NFL, as is San Diego having 49 interceptions in 1961. Paul Krause's career total of 81 (or is it 82?) is untou...
